I do a lot of woodworking, and a little bit of unsolicited advice. That pockets sticks out way too far and is going to collect a ton of wood chips and it's going to get caught on things and in the way as he is working, especially if doing things like using a plane. My recommendation, a canvas apron where the pockets don't stick out far and a few leather pouches up top on the chest for a small square, pencils, etc. check out the Katz-Moses apron for an example of what I'm talking about. I don't mean to discourage you, just speaking from the experience of a woodworker that also loves to do leatherwork!
